Do you enjoy fishing? I was never really that interested because I find it a bit boring, but I remember going on a fishing trip with some of our friends a few years back and it was actually very relaxing. I don't remember catching anything special, but hubby was able to catch this nice big whatever fish that was - LOL - even after he fell asleep:) It is not is favorite sport either and he was a bit more interested in taking a nap than the fishing thing itself. SO in his eyes started closing and soon he was softly snoring while his fishing rod was still in the water. Next thing we know the fishing rod goes crazy, he wakes up and catches the biggest fish of the day LOL DId something unusual ever happen when you had gone fishing?

I love fishing but it does get boring. I never catch anything and yet I still find it fun lol. I just enjoy the relaxation of fishing on a boat.

I tried it once and I find it rather enjoying. The feeling of catching a fish is unparalleled. The waiting part is a bit boring but it all pays off in the end once you get that elusive catch.

Yes, it's the waiting part that gets to me and prevents me from fully enjoying the experience :) As for catching fish, unless I"m really hungry and I can eat it, I always throw them out :)

Fishing to me is waiting to see who is smarter you or the fish. lol. I haven't been fishing in a very long time but it is alright. I am not over enthused about it but it doesn't bother me to go. The only thing is since I have to put my bait on it has to be minnows not worms. I can't stand to touch worms they are so ehhhhhhhh. So they would always bring some minnows along when we went fishing. I enjoyed the waiting to see how long before the bobber started to go under. I do have to say that it is relaxing to me. But I would not go out of my way to go fishing.

Yes, just like me. I do find it relaxing, but then again there are other things that I enjoy more and are relaxing as well :) WHIle I was fishing I just kept thinking that what I really wanted to do was to jump in the water and have a good swim hehehehehe

I am not a fan of fishing no, my dad took me a few times and he even bought me my own rod. I did not mind it because we always had a lovely picnic to eat, but when it came to putting a maggot on a hook, I could not do that, it is just gross!! So my dad always had to do it, I think we caught a few little fishes, but never anything to get excited about.

LOL that part of the bait I have no problem at all. I don't care about worms or anything else. It's just the part where we wait... and wait... LOL I am not a very patient person hehehe

Am I a fan of fishing you ask? Am I breathing I ask? Is the world round? Is water wet? YES I LOVE FISHING!!!! I fish every chance I get and dream about it when I cant go. I look like the Rambo of fishing when I go, and I mean to come back with something (that doesnt always happen though)but even I dont catch anything I can sit there and fish for hours on end.

LOL We have many friends that are just like you. And we often go with them, but our enthusiasm is not as big as theirs :) I do enjoy the relaxing time tough, and that's why we keep going with them :)
